  1. [size=3][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000]Black Lakland Skyline with maple board in fantastic condition. Some [u]very light[/u] surface scratches on front but they are so light they do not show up in the photographs.[/color][/font][/size] [size=3][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000]For those who are unaware t[/color][color=#000000]he 55-02 is equipped with Lakland's familiar MM/J pickup configuration and custom 3-band preamp used in the US-made 55-94. The controls on the 55-02 are the same as on the 55-01 and the master volume pot can be pulled to bypass the active preamp. The 55-02 has a 3-way toggle for coil splitting. The [/color][color=#000000]35-inch scale necks make for killer low B's! That is why the low tones on Skyline 5-string basses boom with piano-like clarity![/color][/font][/size] [color=#000000][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][size=3]Looking for £850.00 REDUCED TO £700[/size][/font] [font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000]Available for viewing - I'm in Bristol.[/color][/font][/color][size=3][font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000] [/color][/font][/size] [font=tahoma, geneva, sans-serif][color=#000000][size=3]Looking for sale only, no trades please.[/size][/color][/font]
  2. [quote name='throwoff' timestamp='1327271589' post='1508783'] Yep, Also if you ever see Rio Palisander thats Brazillian Rosewood. [/quote] So Brazilian Rosewood is lighter in colour than standard rosewood that you would normally get on say a P bass? If so is it harder or softer as that's gonna affect the sound quite a bit yeah?
  3. [quote name='Immo' timestamp='1327174800' post='1507521'] Fingerboard of every bass that on English-speaking sites is advertised to be 'rosewood' is described on Polish sites as 'palisander' as it is a Polish word for 'rosewood'. [/quote] Many thanks!
  4. Hi all, I'm looking at buying a bass which is described as having a Palisander fingerboard!! Although in the picture it looks more maple in colour than rosewood, info on Google suggests that it is indeed a form of Rosewood. Has anyone any more info on this please? Ta J
  5. Howard is a top bloke, we agreed a price for the Lakland 55-02, payment within 30 mins via PayPal, all in all great communication and a pleasure to deal with.

  9. [quote name='Ziphoblat' timestamp='1323129161' post='1459750'] ...now if only somebody would buy my Stingray. [/quote] What Stingray is it?
  10. Hi, What's the weight of the bass? J
  11. [quote name='Ziphoblat' timestamp='1323127208' post='1459713'] Does the 55-01 come with a case? Also, without meaning to sound rude, am I missing something? The retail price for a new 55-01 at the moment, after a quick search, appears to be cheaper than this second-hand one you have listed here... I'm not well-informed on Laklands, and was just wondering if there was something I wasn't aware of. [/quote] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]This 2005 bass has been upgraded with Nordstrand 'Fat Stacks' which are amazing in humbucking or single coil and a US bartolini preamp which is much better/flexible than the stock Asian one.
